Abstract

A semiconductor device coupled to a device that outputs positional information representing a position, the semiconductor device including: a first external terminal to which the positional information is supplied; and a second external terminal, wherein sensitivity deviation information representing the deviation of the sensitivity of the device is received through the second external terminal, and a gain to amplify the positional information from the first external terminal is set on the basis of the sensitivity deviation information; wherein the first external terminal and the second external terminal are the same external terminals, and the positional information and the sensitivity deviation information are supplied in a time-division manner, wherein the device outputs a deviation between the sensitivity of the device and a predetermined sensitivity as the sensitivity deviation information, and wherein the semiconductor device includes a gain control amplifier that amplifies the positional information.
